What we see at left is a a perfect example of a “straw man” argument, i.e., one that deliberately twists one side of the debate. If you asked to guess as to the percentage of Americans who want to give up free enterprise and hand over the “means of production” to the government, I’d say it could be 1/100th of a percent.

Practically nobody wants “everything from the state.” What most of us want, in addition to the many dozens of other things that the U.S. federal, state, and local governments provide us is Medicare for all and subsided education, which is the form of government in the countries that consistently come in at the top of the World Happiness Rankings.
